A piece of metal weighing 267.0 g is placed in a graduated cylinder containing 229.0 mL of water. The volume of water now reads 257.5 mL. From these data calculate the density of the metal. e provided box. A piece of metal weighing 267.0 g is placed in a graduated cylinder containing 229.0 mL of water. The volume of water now reads 257.5 mL. From these data calculate the density of the metal.

9.368g/mL

Explanation:

The density is defined as the mass of a compound in a determined volume.

Based on Archimedes' law, the volume of the piece of metal is the difference between the volume of the water + the inmersed piece - the original volume of water. That is:

Volume of the metal:

257.5mL - 229.0mL = 28.5mL

As the mass of the metal is 267.0g; its density is:

Density:

267.0g / 28.5mL =

catya your not at all which answer i've seen you do this on another question!
